Karina Roberts (slavegirl):
will post pics up as soon as i get them off my camera, out here at Canugra we got a nice wild storm.. had hail mostly pea sized with a few larger stones (about cherry tomato size) strong wind and lots of close lightning.

Colin Maitland:
Just a few shots of today's supercell.





Colin Maitland:
Then came the hail, still working on the photos so I can post them. What an afternoon.









Fortunately we were on the tail end of the storm.

Paul D:
observed a couple of the storms Nth of Bris this arvo

Caboulture storm after it appears to split, left split inflow at 4:50pm app


Bellthorpe storm 4-55pm app

This storm seemed to get organised for a brief period and produced at the very least a funnel for app 1 minute before disapating
-5:01pm app video shot with funnel inprogress

I'll try and get the vid contrasted a bit and see what is visible.
And a bit after a shot from my missus

Michael Bath:
Jason Paterson and I chased yesterday though didn't go too far. Spent most of the afternoon just north of Casino. Local cumulus blocked developing storms for a while then the contrast was pretty terrible but it eventually become better by mid-afternoon.

A storm developed near Tabulam and other activity NW of Kyogle.



They struggled for moisture at first but then took off with solid high tops - though the windshear really didn't help them develop further locally. Looks like the forecast wind shear profile did not eventuate.









We met up with Bec Armatyge and enjoyed a barrage of CGs from the blob of storms over the far NW of the Northern Rivers / NE part of Northern Tablelands.

These were taken with a lightning trigger.







Would have been nice to get some hail too, but not to be.
